[QUOTE="leatherneckjacket, post: 971522, member: 3849"] And you are taking the fact that college teams are competing for the available players and using their resources to maximize their portion of the available pool of players, as if that is the only factor that drives the value of the college football. When, in fact, the universities would do the same exact thing with lesser talent if those were the only players that were available to them. Further, if all that was available to them was lesser players, it would have zero impact on the value of tv contracts, the revenues the teams would generate or the salaries of the coaches. It is completely independent of the quality of the talent available. College football competes with professional sport not because of the quality of the players, but because of the brand of college football and the brand of the universities of which it is comprised. Without college football, 90% of the players would generate no discernable market for their football skills. This is demonstrably true since the market value of 90% of the players coming out of college is non existent despite there being multiple professional leagues available to them. By the way, when the NBA allowed players to come right out of HS into the league, it had zero impact on attendance, viewership, revenues, or coaches salaries. [/QUOTE]
